Equal Right, Equal Opportunity

In this world, we are all equal in God’s eyes. But in reality, in every person’s sight, we’re all different in appearance and personality. But I suggest that we must have all equal rights and opportunities.

            The world is an apple. It is circular. It has no corners so we can’t control the happenings that may occur. "Gender equality and women’s empowerment are fundamental to the global mission of the United Nations to achieve equal rights and dignity for all... But equality for women and girls is also an economic and social imperative. Until women and girls are liberated from poverty and injustice, all our goals -- peace, security, sustainable development -- stand in jeopardy."

            "Equal access to education, training and science and technology: pathway to decent work for women."

A Glimpse in the 2nd Grading

                Time really flies so fast. One eightht of being a fourth year student is now over. Or shall I say, the Second Grading Period has already ended. And the five months I shared with my teachers and classmates was all worth it. And one of the subjects I loved this Second Grading Period is ICT. I really love this subject because I really have a great interest on computers.

In five months now of being in school, I've already learned a lot of things about our subject ICT. And our main focus in this subject is "Internet". At first, I thought to myself that I know all about the internet. But it's not. There are still a lot of things I need to discover. And with the help of our teacher in this subject, I've already known all about the instances of internet. And without this subject, I'm not posting any blogs here in blogger because I just learned blogging when our teacher taught us to. Having this subject is a big help for me. From this subject, I learned how to make my own blog, wherein I can freely express my thoughts, without having anyone to judge me and I was able to share it to my fellow students, teenagers and other people.

I know that in this subject, there will be more fun and enjoyable lessons to learn, wherein I can express myself and skills in computer. Because, ever since I was at my elementary days, I really love exploring the computer. And through this subject, I believe that I can still improve my knowledge about this aspect because I expect more with ICT.

"Intramurals"

                “Intramurals”… We usually shorten this word and it becomes “Intrams.” When we talk about Intramurals, we obviously talk about all about sports. Not only sports but in all aspects of it.

                This year 2014, we had celebrated Intrams in our school. Yes of course, for the athletes, this event may not b boring. But for the non-athletes, this may be. Yet we think that this celebration may be boring, so we SSG Officers made think of a way that will turn out this event amazing. We decided to have four booths. These are the; Horror Booth which is located at the 9-Legendre room, Movie Booth at the second floor of the SSG Building, Food Booth at the SSG Lobby, and the Marriage Booth at the FEC Center. Some clubs had also different booths. There is the Message Booth of the English and Affiliates Club and the Dedication Booth of the MAPEH and Cultural Arts Club. With these booths, many students had fun during the Intramurals in our school. And we officers were so proud of ourselves because the event didn't turned out that boring in the second day.

                But unfortunately in the third day, all the games were cancelled because of the Typhoon Mario. And we are in Signal # 3 as said in the news.

My Teacher, My Hero

Over the years, the world's idea of a hero has changed drastically. Early on in the world, a hero was viewed as someone who brought food for their family. A hero was someone who was a provider. But for me, all of us can be heroes in our own ways.

This month of October, we are going to celebrate again the so called 'Teacher's Day'. And the theme would be as usual; "My Teacher, My Hero." Teachers may not be heroes like the superheroes having super power. But they have the skills, talents, and ability to enhance our knowledge and teach us good things. Without them, there will be no other working staffs or professionals like doctors, nurses, engineers and others. Because a teacher is the one who teaches all.

In our generation today, a few of the youth only want to become teachers because we believe that being a teacher is not that easy. But we must still give importance to our beloved teachers. And make them as precious ones.

"Immunation"

Immunation.. What ideas do enter our minds when we hear the word “immunation”? It’s hard to explain because it can’t be found in the dictionary but all I know about this is, it’s all about SCIENCE!

                In the month of September, the Science Club Month Celebration is celebrated. This year 2014, the theme for the National Science Club Month is “IMMUNATION: Arming Science Clubbers with Healthful Defenses towards National Wellness.” When hearing this theme, it’s very hard to understand. But when you think and understand it deeper, you will get the point and ideas from it. The theme is according to a post on the official Facebook page of the Philippine Society of Youth Science Clubs (PSYSC). The group explained the rationale behind the theme as follows:

“It is a play on words on ammunition and immunization. We would like our science clubbers to be armed/ to be immune against diseases through imparting knowledge about disease, how they spread, etc. Our goal is not only the science clubbers that benefit from this knowledge but also their school and communities and thus leading to national wellness.”

  So as we celebrate the National Science Club Month this September 2014, let us work hard hand in hand altogether so that we can aim our goal for it and what we wish for Science.

They're Not Just Someone

Over the years, the world’s notion of a hero has changed drastically. Early on, in the world, a hero was viewed as someone who brought food for their family. A hero was someone who was a provider. Later on, however, a hero became someone who did good for all of mankind. That’s when Superman and the other superheroes came in. Yes, they had super powers, but they are the ones whom people based their view of heroes on. As the world became more evolved so did the theories, a hero became more than someone who was a good provider and helped people. A hero became someone who put their life on the line to save the lives of innocent people. Fire fighters, police officers of any branch, are just few. They are also our modern-day heroes.

Men and women who fight to make sure we have freedom of speech, to make sure we get every possible chance there is to make our lives worth living. So, my modern-day heroes for me are my parents. It’s because, since the day I was not born yet, they are the ones taking care of me until now. They work for me, too. They are the ones who are giving all the things I need in order to live. They send me to school to let me study hard and have a good future someday. They let me eat nutritious foods. And most of all, they can sacrifice for my own sake. That’s why I call them as my modern-day heroes.

The view of a hero may, and it probably will change many times. But we will not, and should not forget the heroes of our past. Heroes are the ones that have lost the fight, or are still fighting, but most importantly, the ones that do not call themselves heroes and are just glad that they could help protect the innocent people. Let us not forget the heroes of our past, the present , and let us embrace the heroes of our future.

Buwan ng Wikang Pilipino, Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa

Ganap na sa ating mga Pilipino lalong-lalo na sa mga kabataang mag-aaral ang pagdaraos ng isang pagdiriwang pagsapit ng Agosto, na tinaguriang "Buwan ng Wika" sa kadahilan ang ginugunita sa buwang ito ang dating Pangulong Manuel L. Quezon na kinikilalang "Ama ng Wikang Pambansa."

Taon-taon isinasagawa ang nasabing pagdiriwang sa pamamagitan ng pagkakaroon ng mga palatuntunan sa mga paaralan at pati na rin sa iba ng mga pook pampubliko. Isinasagawa natin ang kagaya ng mga ito. Ngunit alam ba natin ang tunayna katuturan at kahalagahan ng wika?

"Ang hindi magmahal sa sariling wika ay higit sa hayop at malansang isda; kaya ating pagyamaning kusa, gaya ng inang sa atin ay nagpala." Ito ang tanyag na katagang nagmula sa ating pambansang bayani na si Gat. Jose Rizal na nagbibigay kahalagahan sa wika sa buhay ng isang tao.

Ang wika ng isang bansa ay masasabing siyang kaluluwa na nagbibigay buhay dito. Ito ang nagsisilbing tulay na nagdurugtong sa mga kumunidad na naninirahan sa isang bansa. Sa pamamagitan ng wika, nagkakaunawaan at nagkakaisa ang bawat tao. Higit sa lahat, nagsisilbi ito bilang ating pagkakakilanlan. Dahil dito ay nakikita ang iba’t ibang impluwensya sa bansa na siyang nakapagpabago at humulma sa pagkatao ng mga mamamayan. Samakatuwid, ang wika ay batayan ng natatanging kultura ng isang bansa.
